My True Love Hath My Heart

How can I write about you
When you are all the world?
When I know
That all that is good or just in me is only
An echo of you:
When all that I think is what you have breathed
on my heart:
and all I say
Although I am praised for it,
Is your book read aloud?

-Naomi Mitchison, 1926

Wow.
